Is there a difference between an "MR16" GU10 50w bulb and one just called GU10 50w?

Christina B....? what big ones are you speaking of? all these bulbs are small twist lock style...miniature 2000 or 3000 hour halogen or some are led type bulbs...what big ones??? The larger reflector spot lights that fit in the normal incandescent meadium base screw type socket are huge but those are PAR meaning parabolic reflectors style spot lights...75 watt or greater.

There is no difference between the two as I have ordered both before. The MR stands for mini Reflector some of the reflector surface have facets others do not. They are all halogen bulbs...but some are not made with as good quality materials as others...the name brands you find at home depot or other big box sellers are top notch...the others are knock offs and could be made with inferior materials...

We use an MR16 bulb - they're available in floods and spots. You can see pix and prices at www.wholesaleled.com/collections/mr16?gclid=CODOrvb487kCFe1AMgod7wcAYQ or go to wholesaleled.com and search for MR16

It does not use an MR type bulb. It is a 12V 20W Halogen Bi-Pin G4 Base JC Type Light Bulb.

The bulb is a GU10-C 50W 110V, 5100K, 50 watt. Do a search on that and quite a few sales outlets will come up. There is also a Halogen bulb and a Warm Light version available - on Amazon. They are a little less expensive BUT you'll have to watch your white balance to keep it correct. It's a fairly standard bulb.

The MR16 bulb is a bit larger than the MR11. 2 inches in diameter verses 1 and 3/8 inches for the MR11 also a bit deeper. The plug is the same and they are also 12V. LEDs in my experience are not as bright. Hope this helps

The pins seem to be the same. I've put MR11 bulbs into lights that came with MR16 and they fit.The MR 16 is a bigger light, though, so much more output and much brigher, generally. That's up to you.I replaced my halogens with LED --- at first just a few because I wanted to and then the rest because I had to because they burned out --- and I'm lighting up parts of my house which are brick and parts which are a lighter color of siding. Cannot tell the difference in color/ temp between these and the halogens they replaced. These are quite bright.

Hey - they use 50w MR16 GU10 120v Halogen bulbs, which are a little different than the usual bulbs you use in most fixtures. They work good though and are obviously available on Amazon.

It does come with a halogen bulb, 50W. It's quite bright. For my purposes, I bought a 20W bulb, but if you're okay with 50W, you don't need to buy one. This is the bulb that comes with it: GU10 120v 50w 50MR16 MR-16 50 watts JDR C Halogen Bulb Lamp

Seller, I would also be interested in a GU10-->GU24 adapter (use smaller GU10 bulbs in a GU24 fixture).Note that Philips has begun selling their "Hue" color shifting bulbs in GU10 format (and no mention of GU24 at this time). These GU10 programmable bulbs are pretty cool, so there will probably be some demand for such adapters...

I have not used 50 watt bulbs but have 20 and 30 watt bulbs and believe that the 50 should work. I'm assuming the MR 16 is the bulb with the two small nail-like connectors. The fixture should be the determining factor. The socket should work with whatever fits the plug in arrangement.

They may make a variety of connectors but the one I bought is a ceramic disc with holes for two pins and wiring leads for a landscape type fixture. The bulb I use is a MR16. There is also a notation for GU5.3 on the bulb package. I don't know what it means.

No. The maglight bulbs are a totally different design. Plus the power ratings are different.

I honestly don't know the answer to that question, I am using t inside and I really don't notice a difference between this bulb and less expensive ones. Sorry I couldn't help you

I checked Google, and the instructions were simplified. You are looking for T4 (thats the width of the bulb) and then check the wattage you are replacing- Here it is 16w. The "T" number and wattage is all you need to know. The bulbs with this base are standardized.
